Building a Giant Wooden Rocket in 5 Days

How does someone get started in a hobby of this scale if there is absolutely no one within a reasonable distance to learn from?

General Aladin would be proud of it being pointy

That was the least nerdy and most beautiful rocket I have ever seen

Xyla gives me anxiety and stresses me out with all of her procrastinating and last-minute panicking rush to complete the task at hand!! 😳🙄

Fifi is the name we gave "Pippi Longstocking" in the French version. Fifi brin d'acier!!!

Awesome video again❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Your make me Sommer exisited about life🤗🤗🤗🌷

Be safe always wath you are doing watching from Philippines.

so just curious, you are able to live and do this because of donations?

Fun fact: When Iraq launched SCUD missiles at Tel Aviv. The#1 marked fin on the rocket needed to be oriented for accuracy. Xyla knows what she's talking about =] Silver Spite oriented out =]]

Has anyone ever told you that you look like Kristin Kreuk. Actress who played Lana from Smallville, you look like her but without the amazing body. : \ sorry.

I love u❤❤

I bet you have the nerds in a frustration fever!!?

I know about finding the line, so you can find the rocket. It's satisfying when you pick it up and it's still hot. Great work! You made a truly gorgeous rocket.

Me again. I also built an SR71 Blackbird styled rocket using a paper towel tube and balsa wings. I got 14 flights from that rocket before it hung up high in a maple tree. I was proud of that one. Much luck to you on your future launches. They're short, but thrilling. I know.

Nice workshop! I built a rocket that had skis, allowing it to run on snow. I used a couple of Pepto Bismol bottles and two Smart Water bottles for the fuselage. The nose is from the body of a small radio controlled helicopter. I used an Estes D motor, and it actually stayed on the snow for about two-thirds of the run. The snow surface was icy, so when a ski support broke, it became airborne. I considered it a success. I'll run it again next winter,when I go back to Canada. Now I'm going to watch the rest of your video. Cheers!

In German, Fifi can refer to a tiny/small dog.

Metric, please

ay yoooo fifi? 😂 look up what a fifi is in prison 🙈.

Any specs??? Thanks

Apollo LEM had much more duct tape cardboard than this rocket 🚀

This chick is trying to hard to be cheeky. She needs to turn down the cutesy teenager vibe.
Xyla is a talented artisan, and seems to be a competent engineer. But stop tryin* so hard to be unique. Be yourself - you are unique. You’d be much more compelling if you just got down to business, and let natural funny moments occur - don’t force them! You don’t need to cutesy dance every milestone.

Nice job w/ FiFi 😅

Rocket lovers please visit kite is Passion

Yeah - NOW you know why us boat riggers hate sanding epoxy! It's #2 next to GRINDING fiberglass!!! GrrRRrRr!!!?! Sorry - - it's been 40 years since I did any of that for a job and it STILL triggers me!!!
Great build!

If you pack the parachute in baby powder the lubricant in the powder will aid in the opening of the parachute and keep it from sticking ,and you’ll also see the puff of “smoke” at the rocket’s apogee when the engine charge pops the nose cone !!!

Outstanding! Much respect!

Cara buat bubuk dorongnya gimana beib

Are you allowed to add an AirPod or Smart Pod to your rocket in order to find it when it lands?

This is how caveman went to the moon using a tree and some grains , and lighting them with two stones , hhhh

Спасибо вам дорогие друзья.
Просмотрел запуски ваших ракет.
Приятно видеть родное и дорогое. У нас с вами много общего.
В Пионерском Лагере им.Дружба, что ранее жил в Крыму и Городе-Герое Керчь, поселка им.Аршинцево - Герой Советского Союза периода Великой Отечественной Войны
- мы делали ракеты с шестого отряда и до первого , и во всех трех смена лета жаркого Крыма.
Дети всех национальностей были в Пионерских Лагерях.
Делали самостоятельно и под наблюдением Руководителя..
Запускали в поле.
Выезжали автобусами от завода нашего города Керчь.
Делали и парашютистов и ракетам.
На высоте метров в 100-200
- парашютисты отделялись.
Фотографировали и были призовые места от первого и до третьего.
Самолеты делали сами.
Также с двигателем внутреннего сгорания.
Желаю Вам расширения счастья

до Москви долетить?

I luuvv you!!!❤❤❤❤... lol...

It always gets me, how emotional rocket launches are. Some people just dont get it, but there is such confirmation of the human spirit when they go up.

Congratulations for a super launch and recovery!

I know it was 2 yrs ago, but doesn’t the large recovery eyebolt mounted to one side of the ring create an unbalance that can affect the trajectory of the flight. I’m only less than half though the video. I just discovered your channel and I think you’re amazing! Keep up
the excellent postings sharing your knowledge and skills. Keep dancing too!

Yoooo the blue/white flame of the motor was sooo sick!

As far as a fun factor goes this is your best. So much joy, humor, and happiness. Thank you.

Me encantaría que estuviera traducido al español

i definitly wood aswell

How much does it cost?

they should make rockets out of wood or fibreglass. Send emus into stratosphere and let them glide to their target so no heat recognition.

Nice work. Proud I am.

This permanent barrage of *intrusive background music is exhausting. Gave up watching. *It's dominant quality pushes the narration into the background.

I love watching you build rockets. You've got to stop saying like

How she makes faces!

Absolutely brilliant and talented girl, great content.

She is amazing i love her skills and the time she put into her work
I enjoy watching a beautiful young lady take pride in her project
